BREAKING NEWS: Price gouging at Disney resorts. Cast Members were recorded selling refillable mugs for over $16. o_O In all seriousness, looks like a few more stormy hours and Disney should be in the clear. Glad this stayed a little further offshore. Keeping those along the northern...

So the timing on moving the Pandora model makes a lot of sense. The exteriors are close to complete, with the exception of the finish work, so the model would be less useful to them now on-site. It's still close enough if they need to go back to reference something.

Quick question about the models. Do they have a usefulness from a construction perspective, or are they merely built to convey the vision to those who need to approve the $$$ and possibly advertise? I always imagine the models being in the construction trailers for reference, but that could be...

Apple. Everyone says they're coming to DS...

Didn't think this friendly competition needed an official rule book... :confused:

You can have innovation or unions, but not both at the same time. Only one of those fills to pockets of the leaders of Buffalo. There's a reason I no longer liver there.

The cranes can be taken down in a couple of days, and I would imagine they aren't doing much with the foundations, other that hiding them, so they could be used again if ever necessary. I think they would keep them up until the last possible moment.

So how do they get the Teflon to stick to the fabric? o_O

There's been a recent uptick in the HP interest (who knows why?) but over time, both SW and HP are pretty high in trending searches category - https://www.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&q=star%20wars,Harry%20Potter

So I went looking for a good open shot of the building and found the exact same one... If you look closely, you can see the finished beams that will be part of the ride mechanism when it is done - You can tell that they are not structural because they are finish painted, much like the...

The idea that the show screens would raise and lower to essentially create an upper and a lower viewing area make a lot of sense. Load on floor 5 while floor 4 is riding, then reverse. That would essentially put the ride at 8 theaters. It will allow for higher capacity on the ride with a...

Cool. Thanks for the info. I'm usually out late and up early while I'm there, so I can't imagine it impact me at all.

I'm booked at the Boardwalk for January 22 - 27 and just received the notice of ongoing construction during our visit. It's a form letter (of course) so there are no details about the refurbishment, but figured I'd pass along the info. I did a search for Boardwalk refurb and looks like the...

Individual transactions according to the IBM article, so you're right. $500M would only be if the average transaction was $1. I'm sure it's much higher than that.

Apple made a better mousetrap. It was about time. Magnetic strip technology has ruled the banking universe for 40+ years - http://www-03.ibm.com/ibm/history/ibm100/us/en/icons/magnetic/ Because Apple Pay is better for banks (less fraud) and consumers (more secure), they can take a...

That's what I was thinking. I just didn't think we'd see them this soon.

Already seeing live trees installed in parts of the land. That's surprising.

Here's the projectors I was referring to ...

In the left picture, you can see the 2 sets of dual projectors pointed at each set of screens. I believe you need two projectors for 3D. It looks like they're mounted to the top of the ride mechanism.

Disney needs to invest in the driver-less technology for the bus fleet. They probably already are. Driver-less buses working in sync with Magic Bands could significantly improve the transportation system. By simply monitoring the hotel that each guest is staying at, as they leave the main...
